Scout Camp POI Removal

Wayspot Appeals
1

Now that we’re into summer I am seeing reviews for submissions on the property of Scout Camps. As I understand it, these should be rejected as falling into the K-12 category and rejection reason. I am also seeing numerous approved wayspots on Scout Camp property and report them as I am able. My most recent removal request was rejected.

Wayspot: Aqua Base
Location: near 36.8269058,-88.1687285

This POI and several others near it that showed on the duplicate check when reviewing another nomination (but don’t appear on IITC, implying they’re new wayspots) are on the property of Pfeffer Scout Reservation. (Lincoln Heritage Council | Pfeffer Scout Reservation - Boy Scouts of America)

Note the Aqua Base is explicitly described: “… Pfeffer Scout Reservation is also home to Aquabase, mid-America’s premier sailing program on beautiful Kentucky Lake…”

As these are on a Scout Camp, they are ineligible wayspots (K-12) and should be removed. Please reconsider.

Hi @jojenreed64

When I see things like this during review from duplicate checks, I take screenshots of the map, close up of the duplicate, duplicate with address showing, etc. and use the help chat to have them removed.

I know this may not help you for this one, but I have a good track record with this method.

Thanks. That can’t help with this one, but I will remember that for the future. I just reported another Scout Camp a little while ago.

I used to go right to Intel for stuff like this, but that is not really an option anymore. (and why we need a Wayfarer map)
